Boy's eggs hatch out world's second deadliest snakes

A three-year-old Australian boy was lucky to escape uninjured after a collection of eggs he found in his garden hatched into a slithering tangle of deadly snakes.

Reptile carer Trish Prendergast said young wildlife enthusiast Kyle Cummings could have been killed if he had handled the eastern brown snakes – the world’s most venomous species on land after Australia’s inland taipan.
